Inspection Report Summary for Foothill Retirement
Foothill Retirement Care Home has repeatedly been subject to unannounced infection‑control reviews and a case‑management investigation during the COVID‑19 pandemic. In late 2020 an alleged abuse incident involving a staff member and a resident prompted the agency to conduct a virtual visit and to suspend the staff member pending an investigation. The incident was reported to police and the Long‑Term Care Ombudsman, and the facility was required to provide documentation of the resident’s file and related policies.
The following year, a routine infection‑control inspection confirmed that the home had maintained near‑perfect compliance: 99 % of residents and all staff were vaccinated, all entrances were screened, and PPE supplies were ample and properly stored. The facility also documented procedures for screening new hires and admitting residents, and it had an active system for rapid testing of a single unvaccinated resident. In early November 2021 the agency identified a significant deficiency: the facility refused to release requested financial records to support an audit. A plan of correction was issued with a due date of 11 30 2021, highlighting a risk to resident safety in the absence of transparent record access.
A further inspection in late 2022 reaffirmed the facility’s strong physical‑plant standards. All common areas, resident rooms, and the kitchen met health‑and‑safety requirements, and fire and environmental safeguards were fully operational. The agency noted no new deficiencies during this visit, indicating that the facility had addressed the earlier record‑release issue and maintained its infection‑control protocols in a stable environment.
Overall, the reports show a pattern of robust compliance with infection‑control and environmental regulations, punctuated by isolated concerns related to resident safety and administrative transparency. While the facility has effectively managed COVID‑19 risks, the 2021 record‑release deficiency underscores the importance of continued oversight to ensure that resident data and financial documentation remain accessible to regulators for audit and verification purposes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Several government programs offer financial assistance for senior housing in various countries, focusing on the United States for a broad overview:
- Medicaid: Medicaid is a state and federally funded program that can cover the costs of nursing home care for those who meet eligibility criteria, including income and asset limits. Some states also offer Medicaid waivers that help pay for home and community-based services to prevent or delay nursing home placement.
- Medicare: Medicare, primarily a health insurance program for people aged 65 and over, does not cover long-term housing costs. However, it can cover short-term stays in a skilled nursing facility under specific conditions following a hospital stay.
- Section 202 Supportive Housing for the Elderly Program: This program provides housing for low-income seniors. It offers rental assistance and access to supportive services, such as cleaning, cooking, and transportation.
- Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) Properties: While not a direct subsidy, LIHTC encourages developers to create affordable housing. Seniors with low incomes can find reduced-rent apartments through this program.
- State and Local Programs: Many states, counties, and cities offer their own programs to assist seniors with housing costs. These can include property tax relief programs, rental assistance programs, and programs that offer affordable senior housing options.
- Veterans Affairs (VA): The VA offers several programs for veterans, including the Aid and Attendance benefit, which provides monthly payments to veterans who require the aid of another person, or are housebound, to help cover the cost of care in homes, nursing homes, and assisted living facilities.
- Social Security: While Social Security primarily provides retirement income, for many seniors, these benefits are a crucial part of their budget, including housing costs.
Before recommending homes, we conduct a thorough evaluation on crucial factors that define a senior home such as the quality of care they provide, the reputation of the organization, and a comprehensive review of community testimonials as well. Every detail is assessed to assure that seniors are offered not just senior care options, but trustworthy homes where they can experience the care that they deserve.
